Blessed Is the Flame

Orchestrated to stifle the individual Expression is muffled by division and deceit Institutions intent on suppressing dissent Fighting our comrades for the scraps we eat And the stench of the dead reminds us That we will fail Our captors divide us. Isolation defines us We go where they send us. No place is our home Collective punishments. Inhumane experiments This goes on until one of us ignites before we're dead And we will fail We will not prevail As death approaches me You cannot destroy the unique! Death before conformity Whispers in the dark. She did not make it very far But we all watched as they buried a guard We recognized one another. A sister, a brother They took our humanity, but we would soon be free "Do or die". It's not a call to succeed It's a desire to survive It means that who I am is dead if I don't try You'll have to crush every part of me Cut the fuse innate in me But it's too late now, we're ready to ignite I'm ready to ignite And it's do or die tonight And we all know that we will not prevail (We all know) We all know that we will not prevail (We all know) We all know that we will not prevail (We all know) We all know that we will not prevail One grand explosion before we fail! "Do or die". It's not a call to succeed It's a desire to survive It means that who I am is dead if I don't try You'll have to crush every part of me Cut the fuse innate in me But it's too late now, I'm ready to ignite I'm ready to ignite And it's do or die tonight I'm ready to ignite And it's do or die tonight
